HP pad instead of Ipad

I continuously see the webOs videos and I honestly don't see the big deal. Everything WebOs does iOS does, so where is this vast superiority?


Placebo effect. The OS is the most intuitive to him, therefore it must be the best.
 
lol - This is a dead conversation. I have told why I believe WebOs is the best, i have spoken and showed the features it makes me believe is the best, all Ifans have said is "no you are wrong" or "HP is dead" but I am yet to be told what are the things that Ipad does so much better? Putting aside 3rd party apps

Some day I will bring this thread back and say "told you so" but most of you probably already sold your bikes and will not be around lol.
Peace

By the way, I am about to buy my Fiancé an Ipad, she has a mac, she uses Itunes and it works perfectly for everything she wants to do, she researched and after spending a lot of time looking at the features she decided that for her it was good enough, so for all those reasons I am perfectly fine with buying it for her, especially since in July 1st she bought me the Hp pad.

I am also a very loyal Kawi guy, but right now I ride a GSXR 750, why because it is the best bike out there in my opinion, so I listen to people and I switched. I don't blindly follow marketing campaigns and that’s what I mean by apple people drinking the Cool-Aid. They won't look at what is best, they already made the decision even before the product is out. I can tell you that all of you already decided to buy the Ipad 3 even if the Ipad 2 is not out yet.

I have enjoyed the conversation, is good to get the geek out sometimes :)

Hey guys, tell me what the product does better, putting aside all the things it does better.

:lol: webosfanboys
 
I bought the Asus Transformer for my dad for his birthday 2 weeks ago. He loves it (then again, he'd have loved any tablet) but he likes the physical keyboard and the battery life is pretty darn good too.

Different strokes for different folks. Find what suits your needs. Personally, I'm on the lookout for an HP Tablet only because at this price, you can't go wrong, and there are already Droid-pad hacks in the works. For the price of 2 cases of Corona, you get a tablet. Fair trade if you ask me :D

Putting aside the apps? Yeah, let's compare a ford and Ferrari, but we'll leave out the engine in the Ferrari.

I think to most, the iPad was the best choice because it was the first, the same OS as the iPhone (so quick and easy to use). Also, don't forget about the support. What do you do when you drop you touchpad, or it breaks (as ALL computers do from time to time)? I know if my iPad goes wonky I'll bring it right into the Apple store and get it replaced right then and there.

I'm sure the touchpad is a great device, but it wasn't worth the price it was at.
 
name one app you use on a daily basis

Web OS is just waaaaay too late to the game. Just like the playbook. It doesn't matter how good or bad it is, get it? iOS has market penetration, the same thing that gave IBM the edge over Apple decades ago. You need to see the writing on the wall man.

Actually on second thought, who cares if you're delusional. Go WebOS!
 
Yes, I have a low ball offer ready.

I'll only sell it to you if you promise to use it every day. Also, you have to show that you believe, based on rational consideration of all the alternatives, that the BMW is the best motorcycle on the planet. You must be choosing it because it is the most powerful, practical, highest quality, and best designed motorcycle, from the standpoint of technical capabilities as well as user interface. If you're only buying it because you like it, and not based on sound analysis, then I'm going to have to tell you that you're just one of those BMW sheeple fanbois who is a victim of German marketing. I can't stand people like that.
 
name one app you use on a daily basis

Just one? LOL

You must be the crappiest iOS developer on the face of this planet. Change jobs man, you're OBVIOUSLY way out of tune with the environment you're working in.
 
The touch pad for $100 is a steal... there is no if and or buts about it.
I'm going back to college again and was thinking to of getting one for my course, for note taking and reading my textbooks in pdf format.
Then I started to think more about the note taking part and thought to myself I would be better of just getting a cheap notebook.
so it's easier to type with a nice keyboard.
Then I found about the Transformer.

It's a bit pricey at $499 for the tablet and keyboard (16gb model), but it looks like it's worth it to me. With the SD card sots and usb slots I can always add external storage space. (I'm woundering if I can use the camera on it to record my classes even for recaps! that would be awesome!.)
I'm not 100% sold on it yet do to the price point put it's going to be between it and a notebook for sure.
For $100 or $150 the touch pad is a steal and would recommend it for anyone that wants another toy. For me I needed something that would also be productive for my needs.
You can use a bluetooth keyboard with any of the tablets that support bluetooth. I have one on order to use with my touchpad
 
The keyboard dock on the Asus also has a battery and adds 10 hrs to your use of the device.

You sounded logical for once until the last line on your paragraph. Wow you sound angry, take it easy dude, this is not that serious. Fastart, there are many ways to write, with me for some reason you chosse to be rude, its ok my feelings are hard to hurt :) , you have had a hard on for me since the whole timmay thing, you must realize by now that you were wrong by defending him right?, let it go man, if you don't like me, use the ignore button or read my signature.

So anyways the Asus tablet, hardware and software combined plus price point probably the best tablet out there, not sure about apps, people should take a look at it.
 
saw this on Kijiji... so there might be a chance for more people to get one if they want one.

Why pay high price for this, HP is having a shipment coming in Canada in around a week time.
Source from a insider of HP.
Ps: Pls I don't sale it , I just have a close friend working in HP's warehouse with a high post.
He is 101% sure there will more then 100,000's coming in ,which mean the shipment is at the sea and landing soon, and since CEO designed to drop the price last Friday, There were still many many were ready to ship out from china to North america. Price stay the same for $99 and 149 Until every every single unit are clear. One large shipment around the port, another big lots will be on the way soon.
That is all I know.
Why pay higher ????????
Just keep your eyes on hp.ca or hp.com daily for the coming week. Will see.

I can't tell if you're joking or not. You do know that I was being sarcastic about the BMW sale, right?
